Chapter 2: Overview
After determining this information, the Industrial Ethernet Extender configures the RJ-45 port automatically to enable communications with the attached device, without requiring user intervention.
Ethernet Extender Port
The LB320A Industrial Ethernet Extender has one Ethernet Extender port (RJ-11 connector or terminal block, see Figure 21).
Insert the voice-grade copper wire between one pair of Ethernet Extenders via the Ethernet Extender port (RJ-11 connector or terminal block). One device must be set to LOC mode and the other to Auto mode when two devices are connected.

Chapter 3: Installation
3. Installation
3.1 Preparing the Site
Before you install your Industrial Ethernet Extender, be sure your operating environment meets the operating environment
requirements in Table 3-1.
Table 3-1. Site requirements.
Characteristics
Requirements
Mounting
Access
Locate the Industrial Ethernet Extender in a position that lets you access the front-panel RJ-45 and
Ethernet Extender port, view the front-panel LEDs, and access the rear-panel power connector.
Power source
Provide a power source within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the installation location. Power specifications
for the Industrial Ethernet Extender are shown in Chapter 1. Be sure that the AC outlet is not controlled by a wall switch, which can accidentally turn off power to the outlet and the Industrial
Ethernet Extender.
Environmental
Temperature: Install the Industrial Ethernet Extender in a dry area, with ambient temperature
between +14 and +140 F (-10 and +60 C). Keep the Industrial Ethernet Extender away from heat
sources such as direct sunlight, warm air exhausts, hot-air vents, and heaters.
Operating Humidity: The installation location should have a maximum relative humidity of 95%,
non-condensing.
Ventilation: Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing the rear and side panels of the
Industrial Ethernet Extender. Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for cooling.
Operating Conditions: Keep the Industrial Ethernet Extender at least 6 ft (1.83 m) away from
nearest source of electromagnetic noise, such as a photocopy machine.

Chapter 4: Troubleshooting
4. Troubleshooting
4.1 Troubleshooting Tips
Symptoms, causes, and solutions of possible problems are described below.
Symptom: The Power LED is off.
Cause: The Industrial Ethernet Extender is not receiving power.
Solution: Check the power adapter connections for the Industrial Ethernet Extender and the connected device.
Be sure all cables used are correct and comply with Ethernet specifications.
Symptom: Link/Activity LED is flashing continuously on all connected ports and the network is disabled.
Cause: A network loop (redundant path) has been created.
Solution: Break the loop by ensuring that there is only one path from any networked device to any other networked device.
Page 16

Chapter 4: Troubleshooting
4.2.1 Configuration
If problems occur after altering the Industrial Ethernet Extenders network configuration, restore the original connections and
determine the problem by implementing the new changes one step at a time. Be sure cable distances, repeater limits, and other
physical aspects of the installation do not exceed the Ethernet limitations.
4.2.3 Auto-Negotiation
The 10/100 Mbps ports negotiate the correct duplex mode and speed since the Industrial Ethernet Extender is configured for
auto-negotiation (this is the Industrial Ethernet Extenders default setting) and the device at the other end of the link supports
auto-negotiation. If the device does not support auto-negotiation, the Industrial Ethernet Extender determines only the speed correctly and the duplex mode defaults to half-duplex.
